Saturday 6 April 2024
10am - 12pm
Price: $5
Limited places available. Book via Eventfinda: .eventfinda.co.nz...
A painting workshop with Filipino artist Dominic Deocampo as part of the World of Cultures celebration. In this workshop, participants will learn about the colourful art and culture of Southern Philippines and at the same time will learn on the basics of painting: layering and color mixing – using only 3 primary colors.
The Sarimanok (pronounced as sá·ri·ma·nók) is Philippine mythical legendary bird and a symbol of the Maranao, the people of the lake, known for their vibrant colors. Maranao is a predominantly Filipino ethnic group in Southern Philippines. Sarimanok is portrayed as a bird with assorted and vibrant colours mostly in spiral motifs holding a fish on its beak. It represents good fortune.
Each participant will paint a Sarimanok on a small canvas and take it home with them. All materials provided.

Trucks Parking in Residential Streets
How do people feel about truck and trailer units parking in our residential streets? Manuroa and Airfield Roads in Takanini are truck parks every night. This is a safety issue as trucks and buses cross onto the wrong side of the road to pass them. They also block sight lines for people leaving their properties and turning out of side streets. Parking beside reserves and playgrounds means children are stepping out from behind these vehicles to cross our busy streets. The empty flatbed trailer units are hard to see at night, especially in wet weather. There have been at least two accidents in Takanini, one fatal, involving cars hitting these trailers. The Takanini Residents Group have raised this with the Papakura Local Board and Auckland Council, but as these vehicles are legally parked, we are told there is nothing that can be done. I know this is a problem in other areas in South Auckland, so I would like to hear what people think about this issue.
